So, for Thing 9, your Discovery Exercise = your Task!
Most wikis have a special page called a sandbox. The sandbox is a designated area where new users can "play around" with wiki formatting, features and editing.
For this "Thing," we have a whole wiki site to use as our sandbox! (Instead of each making our own wiki, we're all going to play in the same one).
To get started on your Thing 9 task, visit our wiki sandbox and read the instructions on the front page.All the info you need to sign up and get to "wiki-ing" is included on the sandbox site.
P. S. There is no required blog post to accompany Thing 9, but feel free to share a link to your wiki page in your blog, and talk about your wiki sandbox experience if you like.
